I just published my version of .NET bindings for OpenCL over on Codeplex last night. Why another, you ask? There’s already so many out there … Cloo, OpenCL.NET from hoopoe and another OpenCL.Net over at Sourceforge (and more?). Well, …
Every API out there has an object-oriented version of the API that’s easily usable from .NET. Sure, . . . → Read More: OpenCL.Net published!

Whenever I sit down to write an application (mostly a console application), I find myself wishing I had some code I could just drop in to parse command line arguments with. A friend of mine has authored the excellent ConsoleFX library, and it’s really good if you want to do heavy processing, validations and complex command . . . → Read More: Parsing command line arguments with C# & LINQ

I recently had to upgrade the Wordpress installation on my website, and decided to do a bunch of housecleaning besides.
I’d been looking for a good content management system that allows me to keep a blog, wiki(s) and forums (across different subdomains – brahma, blog, etc.) and I couldn’t find anything easy to . . . → Read More: Website upgrade

It seems the ATI stream SDK installer doesn’t install anything but the OpenCL profiler on machines with no AMD/ATI hardware. Running the MSI’s from “C:\C:\ATI\SUPPORT\streamsdk_2-0-0_XXXX\Packages\Apps\” folder seems to install OpenCL (CPU only, of course) support for me.
Note: I originally found this solution on geeks3d.com.
– Edit —
ATI/AMD have since fixed this, and everything installs with the latest . . . → Read More: ATI Stream SDK on non-AMD machines

Despite the lack of updates on this site, I have been hard at work on a new provider, Brahma.OpenCL. I am very excited at all the possibilities that OpenCL brings to the table. I will try to summarize some of the new features that OpenCL will bring to Brahma.
Different memory pools – OpenCL supports the idea . . . → Read More: Brahma and OpenCL

I just found out this morning that a link to the Brahma website has made it into Wikipedia (under the topic GPGPU). Cool!
The lack of updates on Brahma is because I have moved to the United States (early this month) and will be living and working here from now. It’s been crazy busy getting settled in. . . . → Read More: Brahma on Wikipedia

My interview about Brahma is up on DotNetRocks, you can find it here. I hope this helps Brahma’s popularity and remember, contributions are most welcome (samples, help getting Brahma to run on Mono on Linux)!
I’ve recently had a new idea, the concept of using user-defined types with Brahma. This should (hopefully) be out soon! . . . → Read More: Interview up on DotNetRocks!

We all know .NET rocks. Apparently, the guys over at www.dotnetrocks.com thought Brahma rocks, too! Carl Franklin, Richard Campbell and I had an hour long conversation about Brahma; how it works and what the future for it is like.
It’s going to be published on the 23rd of July 2009, so watch out . . . → Read More: Brahma on DotNetRocks

One of the things I wanted to do with Lyre (my Windows 7 taskbar-based MP3 player), was to
Figure out if a given executable is pinned to the taskbar
Un-pin it from the taskbar
Pin it back to the taskbar
During my searches, I found this blog post that says programmatic access to pinning and un-pinning has been disabled for . . . → Read More: Pin and Un-pin items to/from the Windows 7 taskbar

What does Windows 7 have to do with music? Nothing, really. But I’ve noticed that no one has been enterprising enough to put the Window 7 taskbar features to REALLY good use and make an mp3 player that we can use while we work (WMP team, are you listening?). I mean, who doesn’t listen to music . . . → Read More: Lyre – A Windows 7 music player

Nemo vir est qui mundum non reddat meliorem That's Latin for "What man is a man who does not make the world a better place(?)".
I'd like to believe that's my motto, and I want to do it by creating software and ideas that can help someone go to greater heights.
